We could only potentially close two other locations right now, so I'd be in favor of waiting until we could corner him.
I'd like to force the Villain to Raker Shoals so we can avoid the 4 damage to the ship (well, three because of Jirelle). I might head over to Scar Bay just because of the Divine 8 check there for the temp close. On the other hand, Sea Caves is almost done. We know that the Monster here is that scary Blood Moon Pirate, so I'll wait to see what the top card of the Blessings deck is before I make my decision.

Koren, Defender of Innocents |

Okay, Blessing of Milani and some blessings help, so I'm going to stay here.
First is the Con/Fortitude check or bury a card:
Dice Check: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Have to bury a card, so Sagacity goes away.
And the Blood Moon Pirate comes back, but this time I'm equipped to defeat him!
I'm going to use one of Jirelle's BotGs but I won't discard the Heavy Pick.
Dice Check: 2d8 + 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 7) + (1) + 2 = 15
And he is defeated.
I'll discard the Blessing of Abadar to explore again.

Koren, Defender of Innocents |

Next up is a Swab Ally with a Charisma/Diplomacy 6 check to acquire...
Dice Check: 1d8 ⇒ 3
Nope.
I reset my hand:
Hand: Heavy Pick, Sanctuary, Scale Mail, Sage's Journal, Magic Leather Armor
Deck: 5 Discard: 6 Buried: 1
Note:
With the heavy lifting done, someone should come help close this location :)
1 Barrier, 1 Weapon, 1 Spell, 1 Blessing, and the Henchman left.
